five differences between wind and water erosion
Answers
Wind erosion is marked by transport of light soil particles by heavy gales. The particles settle down anywhere on the objects during the transport of particles. Wind erosion is occurred when pieces of the earth are worn away by the strong winds.
Water erosion can be the result of heavy beating rains and floods from upper reaches carrying soil particles or mass of soil or earth even including rocks and boulders to lower levels by rivers. Water erosion is the process where the piece of earth is worn away by water.
Answer:
Wind erosion:
1.Movement and deposition of soil particlesby wind.
2.wind can carry very finer particles of soil,ranging from 0.1 to 0.5 mm in size.
3.It is mostly found in suspension stage.
Water erosion:
1.Removal of fertile top soil by the action of water bodies (river,streams,seas.etc)
2.Water can carry heavy soil particles with it.
3. Sheet erosion ,gylly erosion,sea or shore erosion are some of soil erosion by water.
